Vintage Murder is a detective novel by Ngaio Marsh; it is the fifth novel to feature Roderick Alleyn, and was first published in 1937. The plot centers on a traveling theatrical troupe in New Zealand. One of the cast members was a minor character in Enter a Murderer, and refers to that case early in the story.
Vintage Murder was one of four Alleyn novels adapted for New Zealand television in 1977; Alleyn was played by George Baker, in a series called the Ngaio Marsh Theatre.
